스트렐라‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪16‬개의 천연기념물

Nice view

Worth a short stop with a view over the flat landscape.

You should come here just because of this mighty plane tree, which is more than 300 years old.

Established in 1958, the nature reserve covers 20 hectares. The Jahna River and the Keppritzbach stream give the forest and its floodplains an African-like appearance. There is a great deal of natural windthrow along the Jahna. However, dead wood is a natural component of floodplain forests, and the entire area is part of the EU's Natura 2000 ecological network. Besides many animal species, the endangered spring snowflake (Leucojum vernum) thrives here.

It is rare that a tree is declared a national heritage of Germany. The 200-year-old ginkgo in the Jahnishausen Castle Park was honored with it in October 2019. After all, it can live to be over 1000 years old, so it has just outgrown the "teenage age" (:-) and is one of the 100 most important trees in Germany.

Below the Elbe, between Strehla and Cottewitz, lies a broad granite rock: the Nixstein. It used to jut out of the water to a width of over eight meters (sixteen cubits) up to the middle of the river, endangered shipping, caused ice barriers with the resulting flooding and was the reason for an etiological story that gave the name Nixstein to the homes of mermaids in the Granite rock explained. Johannes Herrmann suspects that sand and rubble from the Rietzschebach, which flows into the Elbe next to the Nixstein, created a ford between the banks of the Elbe from Strehla and Lorenzkirch a thousand years ago.
